I have just been really bothered by some of the things that happened with the yes on 8 campaign, especially involving the church. This is something I was already upset about and your blog just happened to be the first one I read that agreed with that position.<BR/><BR/>To answer your questions: no I don’t believe in abortion as birth control, but until there is a way to handle that situation without limiting all reproductive rights there will be the possibility of it occurring. The whole argument about, “what if my mother had an abortion” is completely void and circular. Most people can agree that if a woman’s life is in danger then abortion should be allowed. That clearly implies that the woman’s life has more value than the fetus’s potential of life. To me, no fetus has a RIGHT to exist - they exist by the goodwill of their mothers, and will do so until they develop the ability to live independently of women’s bodies. Yes, the man should have a say but it is ultimately the woman’s choice. <BR/>I tried not to get into too much and leave simple answers. Just my opinion.alanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03584615751827242204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7118401069599940923.post-32458241266043349682008-11-13T10:40:00.000-08:002008-11-13T10:40:00.000-08:00alana, ur r so rite... i dont agree the government...alana, ur r so rite... i dont agree the government should tell a woman wht to do with her uterus. thats a very good point. and it should b a personal choice, but...let me ask u. Should the father b involved with making that dicision? And what about the women who use abortion as birth control when condoms r availble everywhere? and they r much cheaper both financially as well as emotionally?<BR/>Heres another question for u. u said u were adopted. if ur mother had chose abortion, where would u b today?<BR/><BR/>good argument for same sex marriages. and u may b rite about the traditional marriage thing. it is very backwoods and old style. but, as hard as i try i can not wrap my brain around same sex marriages. call me old fashioned, but i'm sorry. i can't change my views on that. it's so engrained into my very being its hard to change it.<BR/><BR/>lol. and ur rite about another thing. somethings we may not agree on. but, that's okay. we can still b frinds. <BR/><BR/>furthermore, i would like to say...i sure wish i knew u when i ws looking for an editor to my book. ur honesty and ur porfessionalism in ur critisms would hav been so refreshing. and very enlightning. i had a hard time finding ppl who were honest with me. wow! and lol.<BR/><BR/>check it out, The Dark Wolf at lareepublishedauthor.blogspot.com<BR/>and go to librarydepot.com if ur interested in purchasing it.<BR/><BR/>o and btw...i dont hav ur blogspot. ur name takes me to ur myspace page. next time u visit can u please leave it? i am very interested in seeing wht ur arguments r about mine.<BR/><BR/>thnk u.<BR/><BR/>Laree DLaree Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03197648184394449741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7118401069599940923.post-48646077223037446152008-11-13T00:01:00.000-08:002008-11-13T00:01:00.000-08:00You’re right; I did misinterpret what you said. My...You’re right; I did misinterpret what you said. My bad lol<BR/>I still don’t agree with you though since the idea of a “traditional” family is essentially a thing of the past for most people. I wrote my own blog about the points you bring up actually.<BR/><BR/>And forced child birth is essentially the reality of what it means for the government to mandate what a woman can do with her uterus. <BR/><BR/>I don’t think we will ever agree on these topics but hey,there is nothing wrong with that.alanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03584615751827242204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7118401069599940923.post-59475500815681819062008-11-12T21:14:00.000-08:002008-11-12T21:14:00.000-08:00alana...this is great! i am so pleased u checked t...alana...this is great! i am so pleased u checked this out. and u raise some very good points! commendable! very good. u have quite an argument! <BR/>I love ur my space page. very nice!<BR/><BR/>now, bac to ur comments. i am truly sorry if u thought i ws against adoption altogether...i'm not. i'm against gays being able to adopt. i dont think that kind of enviroment is right for a child. my oponion. but, then again, who am i to say. <BR/><BR/>u said "forced child birth"...hmmm that's very interesting... i would like to know more about that. <BR/><BR/>no ur not taking a leap. it's a good assumption about me being anit-choice. even though i am not. im for adoption if a young mother does not want to or is unable to raise her child. i am however against abortion. so adoption is an option for those who wake up one morning to find they have an unwanted pregnancy. though i can not fathom y anyone would not wnt a child. i am sure there r those out there who don't.so responsibilty is another good option. <BR/><BR/>anyway, my comments were against gays being able to adopt. not a nice loving straight couple. many children who r adopted lead a very well educated and full life. those people who do adopt are very proud and happy for that child.<BR/><BR/>so. please accept my heartfelt apologies if you misunderstood or misconstrued anything i hav said. so, tomorrow i will hav to take a closer look at that blog and maybe do a reprint of it.<BR/><BR/>thank you so much for telling me how u feel. and i willdefinetly take ur comments into consideration the next time i write.<BR/><BR/>Laree D.Laree Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03197648184394449741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7118401069599940923.post-53114644117154400932008-11-12T12:29:00.000-08:002008-11-12T12:29:00.000-08:00Wow. I disagree with what you said to such an exte...Wow. I disagree with what you said to such an extent I don’t think I even want to open that can of worms. Even though I do think it is bigoted and wrong to deny anyone the same rights as other citizens (no one every said being gay is a right either) <BR/>, I think I am most bothered by what you said about adoption.<BR/><BR/>I am gonna take a leap and assume you are anti-choice, so I find it ludicrous that you can support forced childbirth but then not a proper system to handle the influx of children that would result from such a thing. I am adopted and I can’t fathom what you think would have been the right way for me to have been handled by the courts.alanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03584615751827242204noreply@blogger.com
